Content
As the environment becomes more competitive, the necessity of cost reduction actions in all companies has arrived at a level of extreme importance.
Nowadays, identifying variable cost reduction opportunities is not difficulty, the difficulty is implementation. Usually, the Product Development Team generates long lists of cost reduction opportunities that for some reasons are not implemented. The highlighted reason is the lack of a dedicated team in a robust process of opportunity identification, development and implementation.
